After class, I went to the IT business which my work contracts out to. Now, first, let me say that I can understand far, far more than I can say. So, I do ok getting the gist of what is going on. As they say, though, the devil is in the details, and I miss just enough that when I clarify, I feel like an idiot because I'm always slightly wrong. Also, if I try to explain myself in Arabic, my co-workers look at me like I have a second head. I said one thing today, "hathehee lassa saaab" and he could not understand. I explained that I said this is not hard in English. He said, "oh I had turned off Arabic in my head." I told him his Arabic would improve, no worries, and they all laughed heartily. At least they can all take a joke.
Today's meeting was explaining how to run the administration site for our website. It's pretty basic, and I've had done a lot of it before back when I used to show dogs. "If I didn't show dogs, I'd never be able to do my job at work." Yep, I just said that.
So, my semi boss went back to work and she sent me home. Sunday, I'll go by there again, and we'll start working on a lot of the content related items for the website.
